Safety Rules In Comlab

DO’s and Don’ts in the COMPUTER Room The following rules must be observed at all times inside the computer laboratory. Don’t Bring Food and/or Drinks Inside the Laboratory Drinks may accidentally be poured into the computer which may cause a short circuit. A short circuit may consequently cause fire. Leftovers and crumbs attract insects and other pests. These insects may live inside the computer units, thereby causing potential

damage. It is always best to eat your meals/merienda before going to the Computer Laboratory. Don’t Play Jokes Many laboratory injuries are attributed to students who play practical jokes or who “booby-trap” the computer units. This practice can cause serious injuries to you and other students. This behavior should not be tolerated while inside the laboratory. Do Speak in a Modulated Voice

Speaking with a loud voice distracts the class. If you are engaged in group discussion, it is best to tone down your voice. Don’t disturb your classmate while he is doing his work. Do Use the Computer Equipment Properly If you are not familiar to the equipments, always seek advice from the teacher on how to operate it. Any damage done to the computer will be your responsibility. Don’t Move Any Equipment Careless movement of the computer equipment may cause injuries and damage to

it. Lifting or moving the computer parts should be done carefully. Seek the help of the laboratory technician. Carelessness causes breakage and accidental explosion. Do Get Your Teacher Approval In any activity/task you do, always consult your teacher. He is always there to help you if you are not sure of what you are doing. If the computer is not functioning, you should report this to your teacher immediately. Never attempt to fix a problem on your own.
